Abstract:
According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a method for controlling access to a plurality of applications in an electronic device is disclosed. The method includes receiving a voice command from a speaker for accessing a target application among the plurality of applications, and verifying whether the voice command is indicative of a user authorized to access the applications based on a speaker model of the authorized user. In this method, each application is associated with a security level having a threshold value. The method further includes updating the speaker model with the voice command if the voice command is verified to be indicative of the user, and adjusting at least one of the threshold values based on the updated speaker model.
Abstract:
According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a method for controlling access to a plurality of electronic devices is disclosed. The method includes detecting whether a first device is in contact with a user, adjusting a security level of the first device to activate the first device when the first device is in contact with the user, detecting at least one second device within a communication range of the first device, and adjusting a security level of the at least one second device to control access to the at least one second device based on a distance between the first device and the at least one second device.

Abstract:
A method, performed in an electronic device, for tracking a piece of music in an audio stream is disclosed. The method may receive a first portion of the audio stream and extract a first sound feature based on the first portion of the audio stream. Also, the method may determine whether the first portion of the audio stream is indicative of music based on the first sound feature. In response to determining that the first portion of the audio stream is indicative of music, a piece of music may be identified based on the first portion of the audio stream. Further, upon receiving a second portion of the audio stream, the method may extract a second sound feature based on the second portion of the audio stream and determine whether the second portion of the audio stream is indicative of the first piece of music.
Abstract:
A method for providing object information for a scene in a wearable computer is disclosed. In this method, an image of the scene is captured. Further, the method includes determining a current location of the wearable computer and a view direction of an image sensor of the wearable computer and extracting at least one feature from the image indicative of at least one object. Based on the current location, the view direction, and the at least one feature, information on the at least one object is determined. Then, the determined information is output.

Abstract:
A method of determining, by an electronic device, an audio event is disclosed. The method may include receiving an input sound from a sound source by a plurality of sound sensors. The method may also extracting, by a processor, at least one sound feature from the received input sound, determining, by the processor, location information of the sound source based on the input sound received by the sound sensors, determining, by the processor, the audio event indicative of the input sound based on the at least one sound feature and the location information, and transmitting, by a communication unit, a notification of the audio event to an external electronic device.
